Hello all! Does anyone know if I can hardwire the orbi satilights to the router to ensure 0 drop in speed over distance?

Yes.  Gigabit ethernet has a potential distance of 328ft. using Cat6 cable.

Re: Orbi

30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router
